Chapter 15 My Demon-Slaying Sword is Terrifyingly Powerful
As dawn broke, morning light streamed into the hall through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Xiao Zhengjun walked over and stood near the door of his daughter's bedroom, frowning as he looked at the scene inside.
With red eyes and a slightly hoarse voice, Zhou Zheng stared intently at the computer screen: "Here's the mineral sphere. Use the trick I taught you: send your fastest fleet to circle around the Succubus Galaxy to buy time."
Xiaoxue sat on the soft chair, hugging her knees, her eyes red as she stared at the computer screen: "Godfather, hurry up and climb the technology ladder, I can't keep up."
Xiao Zhengjun frowned, looking at the two young men who were so engrossed in the game, and thought to himself that they were doomed. He shook his head, said nothing, and quietly walked away.
The two Star Sea Emperors fought like this until eight o'clock in the morning, all for the sake of their people and their domination of the Star Sea, until Xiaoxinshi, also known as Aunt Xueting, came to knock on the door, which stopped the two Star Sea Emperors from their exhausting efforts.
After washing up, Zhou Zheng and Xiao Xue sat in the living room, obediently drinking milk and eating bread slices with eggs.
Zhou Zheng, his eyes red, took a sip: "It tastes good."
Xiaoxue, her face pale with anxiety, drank frantically: "Eat quickly, Godfather, we're going to save Xinghai."
Zhou Zheng took out his phone and glanced at the time: "Let's sleep first, we'll talk after we wake up. I feel like if we don't sleep soon, we'll both die from overwork."
Xiaoxue was deeply disappointed and had no choice but to slow down her drinking pace: "What a pity, you are not a good Star Sea Emperor."
Zhou Zheng ignored her rant and silently took out two drawn talismans: "One is a calming talisman to help you sleep, and the other is a Medicine King talisman to enhance your self-healing ability. Take them and go to sleep quickly. We'll talk again when you wake up."
Xiaoxue's eyes lit up: "Okay, okay, let's continue after we wake up."
She hurriedly swallowed the bread and egg sandwich, grabbed two talismans and rushed to the bedroom. Sitting on the edge of the bed, she stuck the calming talisman and the medicine king talisman on her forehead, then fell asleep without even covering herself with a blanket.
Zhou Zheng was stunned, but he didn't pay much attention. He finished eating as usual, forced himself to walk to the sofa, used his spiritual power to draw a calming talisman and a medicine king talisman and stick them on his arm. He waved to Aunt Xue Ting and said, "I'm a little sleepy. I'm going to sleep first."
He put his head on the sofa, and everything went black.
When Zhou Zheng opened his eyes again, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. He was full of energy and covered with a blanket. Although he hadn't rested for long, thanks to the calming talisman, the Medicine King talisman, and the passive effects of the Rejuvenation Technique, his condition was at its peak.
Zhou Zheng sat up, rubbed his face with both hands, and calmed himself down.
"Master Zhou, you're awake?" Aunt Xue Ting was sitting at the dining table not far away, holding a teacup in her hand.
Zhou Zheng looked up and smiled, "You're awake. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
Aunt Xue Ting couldn't help but grumble, "You young people really don't take care of your health. How can you play all night long? No matter how fun the game is, it's the same if you play it during the day."
Zhou Zheng blushed; these words were almost identical to what his own mother had said. He could only reply, "I couldn't sleep well last night after drinking milk tea. Um, Aunt Xue, where's Master Xuan?"
Aunt Xue Ting, holding a teacup, said, "Master Xuan said he went to investigate some things. Oh, by the way, Master Xuan prepared talismans and a brush for you. He said you would need them. The things are already on your bedside table in your bedroom. Do you want me to bring them to you now?"
Aunt Xue got up and walked towards Zhou Zheng's bedroom.
Zhou Zheng hurriedly stood up: "No need, I'll solidify my basics first before drawing talismans."
Aunt Xue Ting stopped, her face full of concern: "Master Xuan also said that you should learn divination so that you can fulfill your great vow as soon as possible. This matter cannot be delayed for too long."
Zhou Zheng was slightly surprised: "Okay, I'll remember that."
Aunt Xue Ting chuckled, "Would you like something to eat? I'll cook for you myself so you can taste my cooking. No matter how busy we are, we need to eat before we get back to work."
Zhou Zheng laughed heartily: "No need for that, I'll just practice the Rejuvenation Technique. Um, I'm going to do some training first, Auntie, where's a convenient place for me to train?"
Aunt Xue Ting smiled warmly: "Just make yourself at home. This place is big enough for you to train. If you want some peace and quiet, you can go to the balcony. But it's a bit dangerous lately, so you should train indoors. Your uncle hired someone to come over, but... sigh."
As she finished speaking, Aunt Xue Ting's smile faded slightly, and her brows furrowed.
Zhou Zheng touched his nose, not knowing how to continue the conversation: "Alright, then I'll get started right away."
He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began practicing the Rejuvenation Technique.
After closing my eyes, I realized there were quite a few distractions inside. Five more bodyguards had been added inside the villa, and several more appeared to be stationed outside as well. Although these bodyguards tried their best to remain quiet, ...
Zhou Zheng discovered something very interesting and absurd: even with his eyes closed, he could see other players' brief information and health bars, and in a 360-degree view. From a reconnaissance perspective, closing his eyes and eliminating the interference of numerous pieces of information actually made it easier to "see the enemy."
As soon as the thought crossed my mind, I put that matter aside and focused on my cultivation.
This time, as usual, I meditated for two hours, and I urgently needed to increase my energy limit.
Once he settled down, time flew by. It wasn't until new information surfaced that Zhou Zheng realized two hours had already passed.
I opened my eyes, and it was four o'clock in the afternoon.
[Gains from cultivating the Rejuvenation Technique: Maximum Energy +5]
Zhou Zheng frowned slightly. Yesterday, the energy limit was increased by 10 points, but today it was only increased by 5 points, which is still a little short of the minimum standard of 16 points required to cast a spell.
Hmm? It'll do alright for now, but it needs to charge up for a second and then I'll have to wait for my spiritual energy to recover 1 point per second.
Thinking of this, his brows relaxed.
"…Master Zhou, your skill is truly remarkable. Sitting for two hours straight, don't your legs go numb?"
Aunt Xue Ting sat opposite on the sofa, holding her phone and looking at it curiously with her reading glasses on.
Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "No, by the way, where did I put my Demon-Slaying Dragon Sword?"
Aunt Xue Ting stood up: "Auntie will get it for you, just wait a moment."
Zhou Zheng's face flushed slightly, as if his mother had tidied up his messy home.
A moment later, Aunt Xue Ting came out of Zhou Zheng's bedroom with the Demon-Slaying Dragon Sword in both hands.
Zhou Zheng stood up, took the Demon-Slaying Dragon Sword with both hands, and drew it out: "Actually, I should prepare another Dragon Sword. This sword can only be used to slay evil for now. Auntie, could you please tell Master Xuan to buy me another Dragon Sword?"
Aunt Xue Ting: "Okay, Auntie will go and send a message to Master Xuan right away."
Zhou Zheng grasped the Demon-Slaying Dragon Sword. Upon holding it, he felt a strange warmth, and could even faintly sense the lightning within the sword waiting for his rage to be unleashed.
Zhou Zheng obediently channeled his energy to charge the Demon-Slaying Dragon Sword. Last night's slash looked cool, but it actually consumed quite a bit of energy... Hmm?
[Spiritual Energy Capacity: 400 points]
Current Spiritual Power: 340 points
Dude, I swung my sword and charged up, and it only cost me 60 points of spiritual energy? That's incredibly cost-effective!
Zhou Zheng recalled the effects of his furious strike last night, and then looked at the Evil-Slaying Dragon Sword in his hand. He began to understand why Zhang Xuanqing and Xuan Yizi valued magical artifacts so much.
If an ordinary cultivator possesses a magical artifact before mastering sufficiently powerful abilities, their combat capabilities can visibly surge.
The Dragon Sword itself only provides 20 attack power, while the Five Thunderbolts of Evil Slaying can provide 240 attack power against demons and evil spirits, which is terrifyingly strong.
